Improve Flexibility with Research-Supported Stretching Protocols | Huberman Lab Essentials
In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explain the biology of flexibility and discuss the organ systems that shape range of motion and limb flexibility. I also discuss different types of stretching, which methods are most effective, and practical tools for timing stretching relative to exercise. Finally, I provide specific protocols for how intensely and how often to stretch to maximize flexibility, support exercise performance, and offset age-related losses of flexibility.Show notes: https://go.hubermanlab.com/I9I2vrK
